Press-Ganged

by Tower Curator — "Everyone must be on their best behavior," Saija said in a mocking tone of voice. It wasn't hard to guess who she was mocking. Anderson had been running around the entire school, snapping at anything out of place. Which, in his eyes, was just about everything and everyone. Especially anyone who had their uniforms crooked, ate messily, slacked off during class, or breathed too loudly. He had landscapers come in and tidy up every visible plant around Brakket. Eva had been concerned that they might…

Disaster

by Tower Curator — "This is a disaster." Eva took her eyes off Arachne for the first time since the hunter died and the doll ran off. She had plugged every injury that was bleeding, either stopping the blood completely or bridging the gap between veins with solidified blood. Of course, apart from patching them up a little bit, Eva couldn't do all that much to fix Arachne's internal organs. Then again, Eva wasn't sure how much they mattered. Her brain and heart tube were still intact. So the important parts were…

A Sixth Sense

by Tower Curator — With a long guttural noise from the back of her throat, Arachne tried to sit up. Eva slammed her foot down on Arachne's shoulder despite the sword at her neck. The sudden move shouldn't alarm the doll too much. In fact, pretty much nothing alarmed the doll. Throughout that entire fight with the hunter, Eva hadn't noticed a single recognizable emotion cross her face. And even with a sword at her neck, Eva couldn't allow Arachne to move. The sword had come perilously close to cutting straight through…

Trousers

by Tower Curator — Eva dropped out of the sky, seething with her fists clenched tight as she grit her teeth together. Her final blink had carried her over the makeshift wall of the Brakket dormitory plaza. The first thing she noticed were the arachnid legs scattered about. Arachne's dismembered legs. Perhaps the source of the disturbing feeling. Or so Eva thought until she spotted the rest of the demon, the hunter, and the doll. The hunter's curved sword was buried in Arachne's stomach. Blood boiled the moment…

Encased

by Tower Curator — Arachne hissed through her teeth. Another of her legs was lying on the ground. Attacking with them had definitely been the right choice. Arms, and the hands attached to them, were just too valuable. Especially while she was weaving webs. It hurt to lose them. When Eva had amputated her legs, she had taken several anesthetics to numb herself to the pain. Arachne hadn't. And frankly, it hadn't hurt much at all. The following weeks she had spent regrowing her legs had been more annoying than any kind of…

Indecision

by Tower Curator — "Well, that's definitely the doll that I saw in Hell." Eva stepped away from the window, looking at the others. Irene and her succubus were standing towards the back of the stairwell. One was trying to look as small as possible while the other continually preened as soon as she thought someone was looking in her direction. Unfortunately for Saija, the doll standing out in the courtyard below was of far more interest to everyone. Juliana and Genoa were both forward a bit more, both looking out the…

Wrong

by Tower Curator — "Hold on a moment," Eva said. She didn't get texts often. Usually only when there was an emergency. Either Zoe or Nel using Zoe's phone would send her something. Even rarer were actual phone calls. Right now, her phone was ringing. They had been right in the middle of their conversation about demon hunters, tactics, possible offensive avenues, and defensive security measures. Now somebody was interrupting it. Rude. Probably. Unless it was an emergency. In that case, Eva might be able to forgive…

A Crack in the Sky

by Tower Curator — "Alright! Let's move!" Eva shouted out over the somewhat smoldering field. Arachne was a short distance away, clearing out a few tumbleweeds. Vektul and Srey were both near each other and, as such, near Eva as well. As soon as Arachne heard the shout, she dropped her tumbleweed to the ground and started running towards Eva without hesitation. As she ran, Eva took the time to extinguish her lingering flames. While she wanted to burn down a good portion of the area, she didn't want to start an…

Preparation

by Tower Curator — "I don't see why you need me for this." Juliana's concentration collapsed. Along with it went the few particles of iron that she had managed to conjure up. She took a deep breath and let it out as a long sigh. "All that progress. Gone. Just like that." "Progress? You've been standing in one spot for the last hour doing nothing." "Didn't you see all the iron? I conjured that." "I saw nothing." "Then you weren't looking." Arachne glanced off to the side, looking back towards the…

Paranoia

by Tower Curator — Vague directions, as it turned out, were not the best ways to find people. Especially not people who were spying on Eva and probably knew that she was on her way to find them. Given the time it had taken to gather everyone up, their spy would have had plenty of time to move. Srey ended up bringing everyone to a stop in an alley some distance from the school. "This is the spot." Eva glanced around, looking for any sign that someone had been around. Her sense of blood wasn't picking anything up.…
